Zhongwei Drum Tower

At the bullseye of things, this Ming-era drum tower once announced important events and times and now serves as a landmark that divides Gulou Jie into its northern, southern, eastern and western sections. You cannot enter the tower but it's photogenic, especially when illuminated at night.
